Sorry.  What additional features would be required to support
what you want to do (mixing definitions and expressions)?

None that I can think of.

I can't think of any since I can already mix definitions and
expressions with minimal difficulty and without requiring any
feature that's not already in the language.

Right - you can replace
  EXPR
by
  (define UNUSED1 (begin EXPR (unspecified)))
which is what 5.92 does for top-level bodies.
